Changing Oil in Final Drives (Front-Wheel Drive Axle with Brake)

Replace oil in the final drives after the first 100 hours of operation. Then replace after every 750 hours of operation. Always use a transmission oil listed in the "Fuel, Lubricants, Hydraulic Oil and Coolant" section.

causym CAUTION: If the oil is hot, it may be under pressure. Remove drain screw slowly.

1. Turn wheel until drain screw (A) is at the bottom. Remove drain screw and drain oil into a suitable container.

2. Turn the wheel through 90° so that the line marked "Ölstand" is horizontal (see "Service / Every 250 Hours"), and fill with fresh oil at drain screw bore. Oil should be level with screw bore.

3. Re-install drain screw and tighten to 150 N·m (110 lb-ft).

For capacity, see "Specifications".
